About this opportunity
Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division has awarded contract N6893626P5276 to Vicon Motion Systems on a sole-source basis for a motion capture system upgrade, with an estimated value of $9.0 million.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(1), asserting that only Vicon Motion Systems can satisfy agency requirements due to backward compatibility with the existing Vicon Vantage hardware and software ecosystem, seamless integration capabilities, patented proprietary sensor technology in the Valkyrie VK16 cameras, and advanced environmental durability features. A Sources Sought announcement posted March 2, 2026 received no technically acceptable responses. The contracting officer determined that transitioning to an alternative vendor would incur prohibitively high costs between $3.5 million and $5.5 million, including equipment replacement, software interface rebuilding, and personnel retraining.
The procurement includes Vicon Valkyrie VK16 cameras with patented accelerometers and thermal sensors, custom-designed varifocal lenses with IP65-rated environmental protection, and Tracker 4 software featuring 1.5-millisecond processing speed and integration capabilities with MATLAB, Simulink, and ROS 2. Deliverables include installation, system setup, calibration, and personnel training, with expected delivery lead time of one week. Place of performance is Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, California. Work is funded under FY26 appropriations for Research and Development activities.
